- In a large microwave safe bowl stir peanuts, sugar, syrup and salt together. Be sure to mix them well. (rubber spatula works really well).
- Microwave for 3 minutes 45 seconds to 4 minutes.
- Stir with a metal spoon so it doesnt stick. Stir it quickly so it doesnt have time to cool.
- Microwave 3 1/2 to 4 more minutes.
- Stir in butter.

- Add baking soda and stir quickly until is gets light and foamy.
